Hayley insisting on going with Sophie to the bayou
I just love when Hayley is in a “I’m not taking shit from anyone” kind of mood. She’s so much fun. And the looks of resignation on Rebekah’s and Sophie’s faces – complete with Sophie rolling her eyes – were priceless. And then, it gets followed up with Rebekah’s call to Klaus. Which was hilarious on both sides. Just a fun little scene.
Elijah offering Davina Esther’s grimoires
Elijah being both honorable and manipulative at the same time is always entertaining. He is being manipulative as hell in this scene, and Davina can’t even see it. Because nobody expects it of him. He’s the honorable one. People tend to forget that while you can certainly trust him to keep his end of any bargain he makes, that doesn’t mean that he hasn’t arranged the terms of the deal so that he comes out ahead.
Elijah’s return
*Flails* Okay. So. First, we have more bonding between Rebekah and Hayley. Rebekah is obviously coming to care for Hayley on her own, not just for Elijah’s sake. That may still be more because of the baby than for herself, but still. Hayley is becoming family. And then Elijah walks in. The way he looks at Hayley… Even Klaus sees it. He is being welcomed home by his little sister, but he only has eyes for Hayley. To the point that when she walks out of the room, he ignores his siblings and follows her. And then isn’t at all upset when she slaps him, not only understanding that it was because she was worried about him, but seeming to be pleased about her concern. Ladies and gentlemen, Haylijah is ON.
What can I say? Elijah is back, Haylijah is on, the Mikaelson siblings are a united front, again. Let the games begin. Also, pray for me trying to come up with my favorite scenes from here until about the middle of season 4, because… it just gets better from here.
